During this period, Liu Tao hinted at Liang Xun several times, hoping that Liang Xun would come forward and not play the topic to death, but Liang Xun was like not seeing it, whether it was because of Zhao Yingluo's family affection or Yang Zhi's current official position, Zhao Kai should have appeased first, but Zhao Kai made it clear that he was ready to bargain at that time, and it was strange to be able to convince Yang Zhi. Liang Xun just accompanied Fan Zhixu to talk about the customs of Shaanxi and recalled the prosperity of Bianliang.

Zhao Kai saw it in his eyes and knew that this matter had to be solved eventually, so he asked everyone to go to the banquet first, and he left Yang Zhi to talk alone, and even Zhao Yingluo was taken away by Zhao Kai; everyone knew that these two people were once friends in life and death, and now they are also a pair of invincible partners, no matter what outsiders see, in the end Zhao Kai still has to prove that the two maintain an old relationship. Zhao Yingluo looked at Yang Zhi, and Yang Zhi made a smile that you can rest assured.

There was no one left and right, so Zhao Kai let go of the topic: "Are you worried about Guo Yan, in fact, there is no need at all, his only thought now is to be a strategic envoy? I can guarantee that Guo Yan is absolutely unaware of the assassination of Yingluo this time, and several people from the Guo family have been bribed." ”

Zhao Kai actually didn't believe it, Guo Yan had nothing to do with the suspicion of this matter, but at this moment, Zhao Kai could only say this, otherwise it would be a big crime to assassinate the princess, and it would be okay for the Guo family to raid the family and exterminate the clan; Yang Zhi said lightly: "Lord Wang, the prime minister of Taiping is easy, and the county order is difficult in troubled times." I'm worried about the Jin country, once we reach a stalemate in Western Xia and the Jin army goes south, will we have to deal with it?"

Don't Yang Zhi say in detail, Zhao Kai also understands that as long as he enters Chang'an, once something happens in Bianliang, it is impossible for the Dingbei Army not to make a move, so it is necessary to arrange a large army in Chang'an, which will directly affect the troops that can be mobilized against Western Xia. When Zhao Kai thought of this, he understood that Guo Yan was really not a suitable candidate, but there was no joke, Zhao Kai asked with some hesitation: "But I have already announced it in the circle." ”

The circle has been indispensable since ancient times, and Yang Zhi didn't plan to ask more about whether this matter was true or false, he just wanted to bargain, Yang Zhi lowered his voice and said: "Ability is one thing, the key is loyalty, if you are not enough, you can set up five protectors, which are directly under the control of the prince, but if you are not loyal enough, you don't know who the assassin is later." ”

Zhao Kai had to say that this was a good idea, Guo Yan was really not a material for fighting, he could give command to the first army, and arrange for others to send troops in the future; as for loyalty, Zhao Kai had his own opinions. However, Zhao Kai still didn't feel at ease when he thought about it: "What does Yingluo think about this matter?"

Yang Zhi made no secret of what he said: "The princess and I both think that Guo Yan is in the know, otherwise how could Guo Zheng stay well in Qinzhou and go to Taiyuan to pick up people? According to our investigation, Duorenji's line was connected by the Guo family, but Duorenji was not originally for assassination, so he did not participate in such an operation. I have decided to let Duo Renji go back, but the Western Xia army in his horse thieves will all be killed, and I am now waiting for Liu Qi's movements. ”

Zhao Kai didn't plan to ask in person, Yang Zhi also said that he thought that there was no evidence, and he wouldn't take the Guo family;

Yang Zhi shook his head and said, "Gongsun Shu is in the hands of the princess, and she has her own arrangements." ”

At the reception banquet, Zhao Kai and Zhao Yingluo sat in the middle of the ceremony, and when everyone finished toasting and started the singing and dancing performance, Zhao Kai whispered to Zhao Yingluo: "Yingluo, your assassination must have nothing to do with Guo Yan, it's just that he is a businessman, mercenary, and he only sees whether he can make money, and he will inevitably be used by others;

"Third brother, I'm helpless. Zhao Yingluo suddenly understood Zhao Kai's intentions, and said quietly: "If Gongsun Shu sees it, I will send him to Dali to spend his old age in secret, if he wants to go back, I will change the twelfth brother back." The Song-Jin agreement has been signed, and the two sides still have no exchangers, so it is an opportunity for Gongsun Shu to really go back."

The twelfth brother in Zhao Yingluo's mouth is Zhao Zhi, the king of Xin, the twelfth son of Zhao Ji of Song Huizong, and the two have the same father and mother; Zhao Kai sighed: "Yingluo, it's still difficult for a third brother like you to do." ”

Zhao Yingluo laughed: "So it's only appropriate for me to do it, no one will feel unreasonable." As for the major affairs of the country, I can't bother God, so let's do something small. ”

"Sister, this is not a trivial matter, Yang Zhi is the chief official of Qinzhou, aren't you giving the handle to someone to say this?" Zhao Kai still wanted to take the initiative, Zhao Yingluo smiled and said: "Didn't you announce at the banquet that you were going to Chang'an? I came to persuade Yang Zhi to march into Western Xia, so that no one would say it!"

Zhao Yingluo's words were full of irony, Zhao Kai couldn't believe it, when did his sister become such a powerful person; Zhao Kai's face became serious: "Yingluo, don't forget, you are a princess, and there are things you can't do." ”

Zhao Yingluo said in a low voice: "Third brother, so far, have I done less things that can't be done?"

Cao Wanchu and Huo Sijiu, who were not far behind the two, heard it really well, and they secretly gave Zhao Yingluo a thumbs up, this matter was originally Zhao Kai's selfishness; as long as Zhao Kai was sincere, he could let Guo Yan make amends to Yang Zhi and his wife as soon as they arrived in Qinzhou, maybe Yang Zhi and the two would not say much if they knew that there was something greasy in them. But now that Zhao Kai is showing strength, he will be deflated again and again in front of Yang Zhi and Zhao Yingluo.

Zhao Kai gritted his teeth and said, "Do it according to what you say, and Gongsun Shu wants to go back." Did Yang Zhi say how he planned to deal with Chen Zhenghui and the others?"

"Naturally, according to the law of the Great Song Dynasty, whoever should investigate and handle it will be investigated, so Chen Zhenghui's case was co-handled with Lord Fan Zhixu from the beginning. By the way, Xue Xiaoshi was also arrested yesterday. Zhao Yingluo picked up his wine glass and said: "He is Chen Zhenghui's comrade and participated in this assassination." ”

The wine glass in Zhao Kai's hand flickered, he understood Qinzhou's opinion, the Xue family and the Guo family were involved in this matter, plus the assassination of Yang Zhi by Wang Yi last time, I am afraid that Qinzhou thinks that he is borrowing a knife to kill people, and wants to kill Zhao Yingluo, and he will not worry about turning his face with Yang Zhi and others in the future;
